Today she is 3

It is hard to believe she is 3.
She wasn't suppose to survive the first 24 hours in the hospital. she did.
She was suppose to have damage to her brain, resulting in a life of hardship. she overcame.
She wasn't suppose to walk, to see, or perhaps hear. she does.
She was never going to be normal after her injuries. she is so completely normal.
God smiled on this child. He gave her strength to overcome each hardship, courage to face each obstacle, and love.
She is a miracle!
We have shared her journey for 31 months. We know how blessed we are. We have watched her grow. We have watched her face each challenge and succeed. We are better people for knowing her. She has taken the shouldn't haves, the cant's, the negatives, and turned them into positives. She is amazing.
So today we celebrate her birthday, and know what a remarkable thing it is.
Happy Birthday Yahaira! Life with you is truly a special gift.
